Made in UK mystery guitar - any ideas what this is?

This asymmetrically-shaped through-neck guitar is currently being auctioned on eBay with a starting price of £289. It features a DiMarzio humbucker and a Schaller bridge, with a possible non-original single-coil pickup in the neck position. The seller does not know much about it, only that it was made in the UK (which we can't take as 100% truth without any evidence to support it).

Does anyone have any clue as to the guitar's identity? The shape reminds me slightly of that of Scotland's own Egypt Guitars, but the bat logo on the headstock would suggest otherwise. Any ideas?
